I don't think that matters much at this point as the problem is determining which voxels should be on or off. Outputting a volumetric representation in any form such as cubes or point clouds or image slices (e.g., like CT scan data) becomes trivial. > 2.

Definitely. Be sure to check out src/libanalyze/voxels.c and src/libged/voxelize.c to see where the previous effort left off (as well as the wiki dev logs). You should run the voxelize command in mged and start to get a basic understanding of our geometry representations and how we can use ray tracing to sample geometry. Cheers!
